Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41f win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Witch Doctor wins the Clockwerk vs Witch Doctor matchup: Witch Doctor beats Clockwerk in 55.46% of 25,680 ranked matches.
Rethinking a Clockwerk pick is smart if you see a Witch Doctor on the other team. The entire initiation pattern is easily punished. If Clockwerk jumps in and uses Power Cogs, Witch Doctor can throw a Paralyzing Cask that will bounce between Clockwerk and his own cogs, holding him in place for an eternity. Even if the target isn't Witch Doctor himself, he can simply stand back and drop Death Ward on the committed Clockwerk, who has no good way to stop the channel. Maledict layered on top of this makes surviving the initiation almost impossible, turning Clockwerk's big play into a liability for his own team.
